twisted.positioning.nmea.NMEAAdapter : API documentation

Implements interfaces: twisted.positioning.ipositioning.INMEAReceiver

An adapter from NMEAProtocol receivers to positioning receivers.

Instance Variable	yearThreshold	The earliest possible year that data will be interpreted as. For example, if this value is `1990`, an NMEA 0183 two-digit year of "96" will be interpreted as 1996, and a two-digit year of "13" will be interpreted as 2013. (type: `int`)
Method	__init__	Initializes a new NMEA adapter.
Method	clear	Resets this adapter.
Method	sentenceReceived	Called when a sentence is received.
Class Variable	_STATEFUL_UPDATE	Information on how to update partial information in the sentence data or internal adapter state. For more information, see `_statefulUpdate`'s docstring. (type: See `_statefulUpdate`'s docstring)
Class Variable	_ACCEPTABLE_UNITS	A set of NMEA notations of units that are already acceptable (metric), and therefore don't need to be converted. (type: `frozenset` of bytestrings)
Class Variable	_UNIT_CONVERTERS	Mapping of NMEA notations of units that are not acceptable (not metric) to converters that take a quantity in that unit and produce a metric quantity. (type: `dict` of bytestrings to unary callables)
Class Variable	_SPECIFIC_SENTENCE_FIXES	A mapping of sentece types to specific fixes that are required to extract useful information from data from those sentences. (type: `dict` of sentence types to callables that take self and modify it in-place)
Class Variable	_FIXERS	Set of unary callables that take an NMEAAdapter instance and extract useful data from the sentence data, usually modifying the adapter's sentence data in-place. (type: `dict` of native strings to unary callables)

_ACCEPTABLE_UNITS =

A set of NMEA notations of units that are already acceptable (metric), and therefore don't need to be converted. (type: frozenset of bytestrings)

_UNIT_CONVERTERS =

_SPECIFIC_SENTENCE_FIXES =

A mapping of sentece types to specific fixes that are required to extract useful information from data from those sentences. (type: dict of sentence types to callables that take self and modify it in-place)

_FIXERS =

Set of unary callables that take an NMEAAdapter instance and extract useful data from the sentence data, usually modifying the adapter's sentence data in-place. (type: dict of native strings to unary callables)

yearThreshold =

The earliest possible year that data will be interpreted as. For example, if this value is 1990, an NMEA 0183 two-digit year of "96" will be interpreted as 1996, and a two-digit year of "13" will be interpreted as 2013. (type: int)

_state =

The current internal state of the receiver. (type: dict)

_sentenceData =

The data present in the sentence currently being processed. Starts empty, is filled as the sentence is parsed. (type: dict)

_receiver =

The positioning receiver that will receive parsed data. (type: ipositioning.IPositioningReceiver)

def __init__(self, receiver): (source)

Initializes a new NMEA adapter.

Parameters receiver The receiver for positioning sentences. (type: ipositioning.IPositioningReceiver)

def _fixTimestamp(self): (source)

Turns the NMEAProtocol timestamp notation into a datetime.time object. The time in this object is expressed as Zulu time.

def _fixDatestamp(self): (source)

Turns an NMEA datestamp format into a datetime.date object.

Raises ValueError When the day or month value was invalid, e.g. 32nd day, or 13th month, or 0th day or month.

def _fixCoordinateFloat(self, coordinateType): (source)

Turns the NMEAProtocol coordinate format into Python float.

Parameters coordinateType The coordinate type. (type: One of Angles.LATITUDE or Angles.LONGITUDE.)

def _fixHemisphereSign(self, coordinateType, sentenceDataKey=None): (source)

Fixes the sign for a hemisphere.

This method must be called after the magnitude for the thing it determines the sign of has been set. This is done by the following functions:

self.FIXERS['magneticVariation']
self.FIXERS['latitudeFloat']
self.FIXERS['longitudeFloat']

Parameters	coordinateType	Coordinate type. One of `Angles.LATITUDE`, `Angles.LONGITUDE` or `Angles.VARIATION`.
	sentenceDataKey	The key name of the hemisphere sign being fixed in the sentence data. If unspecified, `coordinateType` is used. (type: `str` (unless `None`))

def _getHemisphereSign(self, coordinateType): (source)

Returns the hemisphere sign for a given coordinate type.

Parameters	coordinateType	The coordinate type to find the hemisphere for. (type: `Angles.LATITUDE`, `Angles.LONGITUDE` or `Angles.VARIATION`.)
Returns	The sign of that hemisphere (-1 or 1). (type: `int`)

def _convert(self, key, converter): (source)

A simple conversion fix.

Parameters	key	The attribute name of the value to fix. (type: native string (Python identifier))
	converter	The function that converts the value. (type: unary callable)

def _statefulUpdate(self, sentenceKey): (source)

Does a stateful update of a particular positioning attribute. Specifically, this will mutate an object in the current sentence data.

Using the sentenceKey, this will get a tuple containing, in order, the key name in the current state and sentence data, a factory for new values, the attribute to update, and a converter from sentence data (in NMEA notation) to something useful.

If the sentence data doesn't have this data yet, it is grabbed from the state. If that doesn't have anything useful yet either, the factory is called to produce a new, empty object. Either way, the object ends up in the sentence data.

Parameters sentenceKey The name of the key in the sentence attributes, NMEAAdapter._STATEFUL_UPDATE dictionary and the adapter state. (type: str)

def _fixUnits(self, unitKey=None, valueKey=None, sourceKey=None, unit=None): (source)

Fixes the units of a certain value. If the units are already acceptable (metric), does nothing.

None of the keys are allowed to be the empty string.

Parameters	unit	The unit that is being converted from. If unspecified or `None`, asks the current sentence for the `unitKey`. If that also fails, raises `AttributeError`. (type: `str`)
	unitKey	The name of the key/attribute under which the unit can be found in the current sentence. If the `unit` parameter is set, this parameter is not used. (type: `str`)
	sourceKey	The name of the key/attribute that contains the current value to be converted (expressed in units as defined according to the `unit` parameter). If unset, will use the same key as the value key. (type: `str`)
	valueKey	The key name in which the data will be stored in the `_sentenceData` instance attribute. If unset, attempts to remove "Units" from the end of the `unitKey` parameter. If that fails, raises `ValueError`. (type: `str`)

def _fixGSV(self): (source)

Parses partial visible satellite information from a GSV sentence.

def _fixGSA(self): (source)

Extracts the information regarding which satellites were used in obtaining the GPS fix from a GSA sentence.

Precondition: A GSA sentence was fired. Postcondition: The current sentence data (self._sentenceData will contain a set of the currently used PRNs (under the key _usedPRNs.

def _sentenceSpecificFix(self): (source)

Executes a fix for a specific type of sentence.

def clear(self): (source)

Resets this adapter.

This will empty the adapter state and the current sentence data.

def sentenceReceived(self, sentence): (source)

from twisted.positioning.ipositioning.INMEAReceiver

Called when a sentence is received.

Will clean the received NMEAProtocol sentence up, and then update the adapter's state, followed by firing the callbacks.

If the received sentence was invalid, the state will be cleared.

Parameters sentence The sentence that is received. (type: NMEASentence)

def _validateCurrentSentence(self): (source)

Tests if a sentence contains a valid fix.

def _cleanCurrentSentence(self): (source)

Cleans the current sentence.

def _updateState(self): (source)

Updates the current state with the new information from the sentence.

def _updateBeaconInformation(self): (source)

Updates existing beacon information state with new data.

def _updateUsedBeacons(self, beaconInformation): (source)

Searches the adapter state and sentence data for information about which beacons where used, then adds it to the provided beacon information object.

If no new beacon usage information is available, does nothing.

Parameters beaconInformation The beacon information object that beacon usage information will be added to (if necessary). (type: twisted.positioning.base.BeaconInformation)

def _mergeBeaconInformation(self, newBeaconInformation): (source)

Merges beacon information in the adapter state (if it exists) into the provided beacon information. Specifically, this merges used and seen beacons.

If the adapter state has no beacon information, does nothing.

Parameters beaconInformation The beacon information object that beacon information will be merged into (if necessary). (type: twisted.positioning.base.BeaconInformation)

def _combineDateAndTime(self): (source)

Combines a datetime.date object and a datetime.time object, collected from one or more NMEA sentences, into a single datetime.datetime object suitable for sending to the IPositioningReceiver.

def _fireSentenceCallbacks(self): (source)

Fires sentence callbacks for the current sentence.

A callback will only fire if all of the keys it requires are present in the current state and at least one such field was altered in the current sentence.

The callbacks will only be fired with data from self._state.
